"Blocked Plugin" is a tough one. Usually it can't be gotten around because Apple doesn't allow "downgrading" plugins.

These steps have worked in a very limited few cases.

Download the offline installer: Flash Player (Mac OS X)

Download the Shockwave FULL Installer here: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/otherversions/

Save the files - DON'T run them yet.

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins

Trash the Flash Player.plugin file and the flashplayer.xpt file from there.

Go to: Mac HD/Library/PreferencePanes

Trash the Flash Player.prefPane from there.

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe

Trash the Flash Player Install Manager folder and Shockwave 12 folder (if it's there)

Also in Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe, trash the Macromedia folder (if it's there)

Go to: [user]/Library/Preferences

Trash the Macromedia folder

Empty the trash.

Making sure your browser is fully quit, run the Flash Player Installer and the Shockwave Installer.

Open Safari and go to Safari>Preferences

Under the Security tab, Make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.

Hopefully, that will do it.
